Assuming the existence of a certain hod pair with a Woodin cardinal that is a limit of Woodin cardinals, we show that the Chang model satisfies $\mathsf{AD}^+$ in any set generic extensions.

Suppose there is a Reinhardt cardinal. Then (1) $M_n(X)$ exists and is fully iterable (above $X$) for every transitive set $X$ and every $n<\omega$ (here $M_n(X)$ denotes the canonical minimal proper class inner model containing $X$ and…

The consistency of the theory $\mathsf{ZF} + \mathsf{AD}_{\mathbb{R}} + {}$``every set of reals is universally Baire'' is proved relative to $\mathsf{ZFC} + {}$``there is a cardinal that is a limit of Woodin cardinals and of strong…

We study $\Sigma_1(\omega_1)$-definable sets (i.e. sets that are equal to the collection of all sets satisfying a certain $\Sigma_1$-formula with parameter $\omega_1$) in the presence of large cardinals. Our results show that the existence…

We show that if the universe is self-iterable and $\kappa$ is an inaccessible limit of Woodin cardinal then $AD_R + "\Theta$ is regular" holds in the derived model at $\kappa$. The proof is fine-structure free, and only assumes basic…

We present a self-contained account of Woodin's extender algebra and its use in proving absoluteness results, including a proof of the $\Sigma^2_1$-absoluteness theorem. We also include a proof that the existence of an inner model with…

It is true in the Cohen, Solovay-random, dominaning, and Sacks generic extension that every countable ordinal-definable set of reals belongs to to the ground universe

Let L be a finite extension of Qp, and let K be a spherically complete non-archimedean extension field of L. In this paper we introduce a restricted category of continuous representations of locally L-analytic groups G in locally convex…

We show that any directed colimit of acessible categories and accessible full embeddings is accessible and, assuming the existence of arbitrarily large strongly compact cardinals, any directed colimit of acessible categories and accessible…

This paper makes significant progress towards resolving a conjecture relating strong forcing axioms like $PFA$ and the derived model at a limit of Woodin cardinals $\kappa$. In particular, using a concept called Covering Matrices, we show…

In this paper, we prove that: if $\kappa$ is supercompact and the $\mathsf{HOD}$ Hypothesis holds, then there is a proper class of regular cardinals in $V_{\kappa}$ which are measurable in $\mathsf{HOD}$. Woodin also proved this result. As…

This is an introductory paper to a series of results linking generic absoluteness results for second and third order number theory to the model theoretic notion of model companionship. Specifically we develop here a general framework…

The paper is the second of two and shows that (assuming large cardinals) set theory is a tractable (and we dare to say tame) first order theory when formalized in a first order signature with natural predicate symbols for the basic…

Let $\Gamma^\infty$ be the set of all universally Baire sets of reals. Inspired by recent work of the second author and Nam Trang, we introduce a new technique for establishing generic absoluteness results for models containing…

It is shown that if there is a measurable cardinal above n Woodin cardinals and M_{n+1}^# doesn't exist then K exists. K is not fully iterable, though, but only iterable with respect to stacks of certain trees living between the Woodin…

We analyze the hereditarily ordinal definable sets $\operatorname{HOD}$ in $M_n(x)[g]$ for a Turing cone of reals $x$, where $M_n(x)$ is the canonical inner model with $n$ Woodin cardinals build over $x$ and $g$ is generic over $M_n(x)$ for…

We put together Woodin's $\Sigma^2_1$ basis theorem of AD$^+$ and Vop\v{e}nka's theorem to conclude the following: If there is a proper class of Woodin cardinals, then every $(\Sigma^2_1)^{\mbox{uB}}$ statement that is true in $V$ is true…

By a theorem proved by Erdos, Kunen and Mauldin, for any nonempty perfect set $P$ on the real line there exists a perfect set $M$ of Lebesgue measure zero such that $P+M=\mathbb{R}$. We prove a stronger version of this theorem in which the…

Suppose $M$ is a transitive class size model of $AD_{\mathbb{R}}+``\Theta$ is regular". $M$ is a minimal model of $AD_{\mathbb{R}}+``\Theta$ is measurable" if (i) $\mathbb{R}, Ord\subseteq M$ (ii) there is $\mu\in M$ such that $M\models…

We prove that under any projective embedding of an abelian variety A of dimension g, a complete system of addition laws has cardinality at least g+1, generalizing of a result of Bosma and Lenstra for the Weierstrass model of an elliptic…
